ブルックリン美術館さんのインスタグラム写真 - (ブルックリン美術館Instagram)「Emmi Whitehorse makes her artwork in the round, laying paper on a flat surface and moving around it as she works. Born and raised on a Navajo reservation, Whitehorse attributes this approach to the cultural traditions of her community, such the way houses are built to be round rather than square. She finds inspiration in the Southwestern landscape and in traditional wool-dyeing and weaving techniques. Whitehorse says, "My paintings tell the story of knowing land over time—of being completely, microcosmically within a place. I am defining a particular space, describing a particular place. They are purposefully meditative and meant to be seen slowly. The intricate language of symbols refer to specific plants, people and experiences."⁠ See Fire Weed on view in #outofplacebkm through January 3. ⁠⠀ Emmi Whitehorse (Navajo, born 1957).
